Oct 29 2018: application received by RCMP (day 0)
Nov 23 2018: credit card charged (day 25)
Nov 24 2018: application shows up online (day 26)
Dec 10 2018: status online indicates possible issue (“you have been, or will be contacted...”). Call RCMP to ask about status: turns out all is good, error on their end, still being processed. (~Day 42)
Jan 8 2019: check online, still being processed. Call RCMP, told still not with Ontario CFO, call back in 3 weeks if no update (day 71)
Jan 21 2019: check online, still being processed (day 84)
Jan 22 2019: check online; license issued! (day 85)
I guess not too bad given some stories I’ve heard. However, a friend who applied a month after me got his license a month ago, and another friend applied before me and he is still waiting. Luck of the draw it seems.
